The World Health Organization (WHO) has expressed disappointment over the U.S. decision to withdraw from the organization, calling it a critical moment for global health collaboration. In a Tuesday statement, WHO emphasized hopes for a U.S. reversal, stating: \"We aim to continue partnerships that save lives.\"
The move comes amid ongoing global health challenges, including disease outbreaks and efforts to strengthen healthcare systems. WHO reaffirmed its mission to tackle health emergencies and urged nations to prioritize unity. With the U.S. being a top funder, the withdrawal could reshape international health dynamics—raising questions about future pandemic responses.
